    Case Summary: WPS/4639/2024 The High Court of Chhattisgarh dismissed J.K. Rathor's writ petition seeking re-engagement as School Principal until end of academic session 2024-25. Though Rathor held a substantive Principal position, he was on deputation as Assistant District Project Officer when he retired on 30.06.2024. The court found the January 30, 2024 government circular—allowing teaching staff re-engagement—applicable only to employees actively posted in schools, not those on deputation. Additionally, the academic session had already concluded by March 31, 2025, making relief moot. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
